Penlee Lifeboat Disaster

HC Deb 10 May 1982 vol 23 cc175-6W

25. Mr. Stott

asked the Minister for Trade when he now expects to establish a full inquiry into the Penlee lifeboat disaster.

Mr. Sproat

Until the Irish Government decide the action that they should take on the loss of the "Union Star", the scope of the inquiry into the Penlee lifeboat disaster, and therefore its timing, cannot be determined.
